I offer as many condolences to you as my internet connection can carry. Reading that you lost someone who was merely trying to take care of themselves really, really hurts. I graduated high school in the mid 00's. When I last ran the n

That is absolutely horrific. I cannot fathom what reasons would compel someone to sell product tainted that way. Especially at a music festival; most of those consumers know their drugs and I imagine would not be the market at which to try

Precisely this, yes. Anecdotal: I have had many exposures to the illicit drug markets in my areas throughout the years. The symptom of many underlying unresolved issues I am sure, but that is not relevant. What I wish to say is that I have

Of the (generally) many things those specific types of consumers are ignorant about, their own ignorance is usually one of them. Whereas I read "Unsatisfied! I did not read the listing!", they feel they wrote "Unsatisfied! Se

We come from similar eras. I never made the transition to 7, permanently moving to ubuntu 5.10 thanks to the CDs they sent out in the mail. Ubuntu for over a decade until late 2020, then arch and arch-likes since Just a couple weeks ago I w

The enzyme responsible is CYP1A2 if I understand correctly. Here is the paper I found that supports increased risk of a specific cardiac event to slow metabolizers. I'm not the most adept at reading medical papers so I can't verif

HTC devices were great. I too have had pretty good experiences with motorola lately. In early '21 I wanted a decent and metaphorically disposable phone so I got an unlocked moto G play from the local Target. I expected it to, like seem

Vice released an excellent short piece on Houstonian screw & slab culture years back. Might still be on youtube! It was an excellent piece at the time, but I haven't seen it in quite a while.

https://globe.adsbexchange.com/?icao=ae01d4 I don't know for sure of course. But I would hazard a guess this RC-135U ELINT aircraft has been keeping a close eye on it, given its flight path.

Speaking for the US, yes indeed. Loperamide is technically an opioid and available OTC, though that's rarely a sought after compound unless one is in dire straits. Codeine is available with a pharmacist's approval alone in my stat

What's interesting to me is how I've started to really dislike people in that mindset/space even when they offer points that I agree with. Take Hasan for example. He says a number of things I agree with when I hear them. But

I enjoy watching the occasional political twitch/youtube streamer or speaker. I couldn't tell you why; I don't feel that most of them leave me feeling any wiser after the conversations end. But the times I come across positio

Honestly I will probably use the term Ship of Thaddeus moving forward. It embodies the concept in a way I find deeply funny. I don't know if the author intended to write it that way or not (the uncertainty of which only serving to make

I certainly can't see us humans as anything other than that. But if that's true, us human machines seem to have a large number of "low level programs" running in the background that serve to blur the boundary between us

I'm right there with you. Google's DeepDream I think? That first week of DeepDream images flooding the web showed me that someone had snuck a can of worms onto the table, and while they had graciously not opened it immediately, th

It's an incredibly striking piece of technology and really shows which way the future winds will likely be blowing. A particular exchange I had with it left a mark on me, in which I requested it to behave like a used car salesman attem

I echo the feeling of a lack of capacity to change things. Given my income level and current situation I resorted to the penultimate form of not tipping: No longer going out to eat, by and large. It sucks, for sure. We do not have any no-ti

It's hard to say. I would argue that yeah, that baseline tip %age is creeping upwards in the US at least, though the rate at which is hard to quantify. There seem to be a lot of social factors at play that are continuing to put upward

I'm in full agreement with you about the tactility benefits with a physical camera versus a smartphone. I'm in a phase of life where I'm not sure what I'm supposed to be doing or even what I'm very good at. But I do

How long were those prices elevated? I seem to recall the beginning of the upward creep in mid 2017-early 2018 but it's hard to recall. It certainly feels like it's been 4-5 years. I enjoyed checking the secondary market prices of

Agreed. In my moderately sized southern city of 200k, we logged/censused 576 homeless a few months ago. Of course these individuals were the ones able to be counted; there's likely more. So roughly a quarter of a percent per capti

Could I trouble you to a link to Rhodes's statement if it's still available/if you have one? I wanted to see her claims myself, but I couldn't turn up anything after a few minutes of googling or looking at her twitter. I

I had a similar experience. Higher resolution netflix on my T-Mobile prepaid data line with warp installed. Additionally I did the bog standard TTL modification, installed warp and probably one or two other things I can't recall. For w

In general this is excellent advice! Having said this, I wager some of us don't mind drawing a soft wildcard before heading to work :)

That's how it generally happens from what I understand. A local or isolated investigation is started and during the process they may uncover a reasonably high-level source of the product. Should they be lucky enough to get a warrant to

Oh my god. If anything I applaud his willingness to stay on the hunt :) Presumably this was in a larger city, as most of the places I have been have had ad hoc, safe and established distribution networks that weren't too difficult to b

I echo your sentiments about a Leatherman. I carried a cheaper Wingman religiously for five years. I bought it on a whim during a sale at a hardware store thinking I would keep it in the car for emergencies. It quickly became a pocket stapl

I find the article title kind of curious, given that it states Parson has "doubled down" which suggests that the video the article references is an active effort on Parson's part. It then goes on to state that the video was p

I remember playing a first person shooter called Red Faction on PC maybe 15 years ago. Through some poking around I (and many others) discovered that when a client joined a multiplayer game, the server would instruct each client to load a l
